Hijinks at No. 17

Fans at the 17th hole of the TPC Sawgrass Players Stadium Course got their money's worth for a practice round day Tuesday, just from the group of Phil Mickelson, Rickie Fowler and Dustin Johnson.

The group hit shots onto the 17th green. Then the real fun began.

First, Johnson gave his caddie and brother Austin Johnson a chance to take a swing (one day before the annual caddie contest). Then Fowler and Johnson borrowed a club from Mickelson's bag and hit left-handed shots. Fowler hit the green, 15 feet from the hole, but Johnson went into the water.

Mickelson then grabbed a right-handed club from Johnson, but he, too, went in the water.
